As the county brings back more lifeguards following the pandemic, it's offering more locations (full list below with dates) compared to 2022, including an additional water park, three splash pads, seven wading pools, and another county beach.
The county, however, will be down one deep well outdoor pool compared to 2022.
"It's gonna be nice. It's gonna be pretty nice. I feel like everybody gonna be out here chillin', vibin'," said Elijah Lampkin, who lives near Harriet Tubman Park. The county is bringing back the wading pool at Tubman Park.
South of Tubman Park, the Carver Park splash pad will be returning as well.
